build: Support for CMake 4.0 (#1960)

The tricky part is that several dependencies break because of cmake
4.0 dropping support for strict compatbility with cmake < 3.5. Have to
resort to some trickery with CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM overriding
what those packages declare via their own cmake_minimum_required(),
and hope it works.
